There is a reason why I usually will base my ideas off of preexisting ideas as much as possible, whether it's abandoned concepts from Disney park history or even, in some cases, copying other people's ideas here (not forgetting to give credit where due, of course, to avoid plagiarism). It's why I've been constantly doing research on the individual components of Dumbo's Circusland, and becoming frustrated when I couldn't find much of anything of substance, and was pretty much forced to do things from scratch. I'm not the most creative person in the world. If I had to wait until everything was completed by me and me alone without help, they would never be completed, because I'm more detail-oriented. I really have no place to put anything before it's completed. I feel like I have to just keep everything in my head. That's the reason I prefer to reuse old concepts whenever possible, because they're already there.
For instance, check out this revised concept for Mickey's Wonder House:

I had very little knowledge about Mickey's Mad House and was pretty much forced to invent things pretty much from scratch, which was not easy for me to do. And it was so big that I had to break it into two separate posts. Here's the second post with the second half of the ride, for reference:
https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads...o-mks-fantasyland.976107/page-2#post-10137855. Had I done it as one big post, as you claim I should, it would have been too big to fit.
Even when I could do something on my own, like a Pinocchio ride of some kind, I ran into a lot of opposition. Space is a huge consideration for me and I didn't want to do just another clone of the ride in Disneyland, so I was trying to maybe use the Speedway footprint and have Fantasyland take over Tomorrowland for this. I had thought of doing the Pinocchio ride, any kind of ride, in that spot and theming it to the encounter with Monstro the Whale.
However,
@MickeyMouse10 felt that it doesn't make sense to do a ride like that in Tomorrowland, which was why I was going to have the space be taken over by Fantasyland and reducing Tomorrowland a bit, and surround the area with rockwork so that it could be hidden from Cosmic Ray's. MM10 insisted that the Village Haus, themed to Pinocchio, should be taken into consideration. He felt that I do a whole land beyond the train tracks, insisting that it's realistic to do, if SUPER expensive.
MM10 also insisted that an alternative would be to do a clone of the Pinocchio ride next to/replacing Small World and using the Village Haus as the entrance. As a compromise, I tried to a thrilling spinner ride themed to one of Geppetto's new toys, set in his workshop, where some bathrooms near the Village Haus are located now. The ride technology would be reused from Scuttle's Scooters at Tokyo DisneySea and Slinky Dog Spin at Disney Studios Paris and Hong Kong Disneyland.
But MM10 insisted that a spinner is unwanted by the public and that I go bigger and ignore logistics and do a dark ride. The only place that it would fit without too much compromise would be Storybook Circus, but I have trouble believing how an Italian puppet could fit into a seemingly American circus. Again, I tried looking up how the Pinocchio ride may have fit into Dumbo's Circusland, doing lots and lots of research, but to no avail. I prefer to do research than to just do things from scratch, but that seems difficult to do when I don't have anything to go on.
There are more examples of me having to do things from scratch and having a lot of difficulty doing so, such as in the old Disneyland Rio concept, but I will put them up a later time to give you an idea.
